School Drama..

[LozziRAWR]

My school wasnt so bad to start with in year seven, but now I'm halfway throguh year 8 and i've already made a load of enemies. a gang of girls tried to kill me at the start of this school year by throwing me down the stairs, and almost everyone in all my classes hates me. I have a maximum of 10 friends in the entire school of 1000+ people, only 3 of those in my own year. Every day I have people throwing things at me, shoving me and making fun of the way i choose to live my life. I have tried telling teachers but they can't be bothered doing anything about it.

Its gotten so bad that I am considering dropping out and going to an online school..

What should I do? Why can't they just leave me alone?

You're strong and you can handle anything, I bet, you just have to remember that. And believe me, as horrible as it seems right now it WILL GET BETTER. You have only a couple more years of school left.
If the teachers refuse to listen, go to the counsoler. They are there for the exact reason of listening. He or she should be open to help you figure out what you need to do to fix it little by little. If that won't work than go to your principal (or Headwhateveranother). Someone SHOULD listen. Explain the problem, explain the horrors you are facing. If they refuse to listen and all else fails, run to the last place some people consider. Your mother and father. And if you must, fall to your knees and beg them to transfer you (all though I hope to high heavens you don't have to!).

They won't leave you alone because it is school. Females are bitches and will always be bitches, we just can't stop ourselves. They might feel threatened by you or be just a bit jealous at how you can live your life without feeling pressured into conforming into their clone-like-ways. If anything you should be thankful you're different. The amount of friends you have doesn't really matter. It's not the amount you have, it's the quality. And you should work on making the ones you do have into high-quality relationships!

Please don't drop out because there are always other alternatives!

That's just it, we don't HAVE a school counsellor. And my parents are making plans for me to go to an online school as soon as we find one..

Look into Keystone National. Great online school that I attended for a couple years.
I understand completely wanting to change to an online school. Sometimes, public school doesn't quite cut it, whatever the situation is.

I assume 8th year is 8th grade? When I was in 7th and 8th grade I had a hard time adjusting because before that I was home schooled for 3 years. My entire 7th grade year I had not one friend. By the time 8th grade came along I had a few I could blend with. Then I met a girl who told me this, "take what you want not what you can get". This is what I gathered from it, dont let bitches push you around if you want respect from your peers you take it! I eventually manned up and fought one of the many kids who bullied me. I then would flip out and cause a huge scene by calling other people out if they talked smack. To be honest my bark was worse then my bite but because I stood up balled my fists and said F U lets fight people not only left me alone but they grew to respect and love me :-). Online school isnt the answer! Finding power and confidence within yourself is!
